Kaminsky is a good guy, but not the best professor. The class was an extremely easy A, but that's just due to the fact that there is zero depth in his teaching. This course was basically memorize how to solve certain equations and take the practice exams and you will pass. Made the subject seem very dry. Overall a pleasant guy and easy class. Meh.
Kaminsky was pretty much the epitome of a mediocre professor. Lectures we're pretty boring and the homework was frustrating at times, but if you understand the homework the exams are pretty straightforward.
He is pretty good. Always post practice exams.
He just spent the whole time reading off his lecture slides, and made tons of mistakes.
His lectures aren't the best and he makes mistakes a little more than other professors. However, he is definitely fair and is willing to lend a hand when needed. He responds to emails very quickly when it comes to homework, and his grading schemes are lenient.
Great professor that made learning vector calculus a breeze. Tests and midterms are easy as long as you've taken good notes, write down the write formulas on the notecard, and do the practice exams he sends out. Lots of homework but it really makes the problems on the tests feel first nature. He makes mistakes on slides, but, will correct them.
Pretty straightforward lecturer with clear lecture slides. Tests were pretty challenging but you could still do well if you studied and understood the concepts, which were given in the last slide "Question to Ponder". Really helpful during office hours too.
Lectures are very straightforward and easy to understand, and he follows the notes (that he also posts online) and addresses questions during lecture so that the material is pretty well covered. Pretty fair grader, and although there is a good amount of homework, it 100% helps you with the midterms, final, and overall understanding of the course.
Prof. K is a very smart man but his ability to teach the material leaves much to be desired. Does he get information to the students? Yes. Do students thoroughly understand that info based on what Prof K tells them? Not so much. Unfortunately, he over complicates 9/10 lessons. He is very open to explain and reexplain but you have to put in effort
6B is not an easy class and it seems like people are blaming the Prof for this. His lecture slides were easy to read and always posted on GS before and after class. The mistakes are minuscule and can be easily looked over for STEM students. If he didn't point it out, no one else would even notice. Tests are difficult and you need to study
Do not take his class! It is awful!!!
He just reads over the powerpoints. I barely learned anything from him and had to study with a tutor. He also rushes his notes so u dont have time to write notes or catch up to what he is saying. :(
He just goes through the surface of the material. Also, You have to attend the lectures to catch the mistakes on the powerpoints he created.
John 'Math genius' Kaminksy cannot be beaten when it comes to teaching math, as he is the greatest math teacher to ever teach at a teaching institution in the history of all teaching. I love how he leaves little mistakes in his lecture slides on purpose to keep us on our toes. <3<3<3
totally confusing lectures
